     Heck, it's not too hard to find incest themes in non-H these days. Bro/Siscon relationships date back even before the seminal "Revolutionar [sic] Girl Utena", and still crop up in today's harem styled shows like "Sister Princess", and the still hilarious "Majikano".

2. (Japanese fiction, countable) A person with such an attachment or attraction.
